Ehhhh, plausible but we're not talking about game mechanics here. We're talking about lore, and in the world of Azeroth different schools of magic have their individual sources.

For the sake of game mechanics it could just as easily be nature magic since it's called /moon/fire and /star/fall. Granted it might simply be an oversight on the part of Blizzard, but in the context of lore using arcane magic is still using arcane magic. A hunter may be using an arrowhead crafted from something charged with arcane energy (a structure fragment from the Well of Eternity exploding?), but a druid /casts/ Moonfire and Starfall. They're drawing on the arcane school of magic /instead/ of nature. I see a high elf vs. night elf dance off in the near future!
